Savile Row is the worlds iconic address for the best in bespoke tailoring, and home to legendary Gieves & Hawkes, suppliers to the British military for more than two centuries and furnishers to elegant gentlemen today. The company began by designing attire for Britain's most illustrious officers, including Admiral Lord Nelson and The Duke of Wellington, as well as ten generations of British royalty, from King George III in 1809 to Princes William and Harry today. As masculine attire evolved after World War I, Gieves & Hawkes added civilian clothing to its repertoire, applying centuries of expertise in creating hand-made garments proportion, cutting, fitting, and quality fabrics to the finest bespoke tailoring. This volume traces the rich history of tailoring, drawing from Gieves & Hawkes vast, unpublished archives of client ledgers, garments and accessories, and photographs. 505 0 $a Foreword / Harold Koda -- Preface / Admiral the Lord West of Spithead -- The history of Savile Row / Marcus Binney -- A history of the English gentleman, the essence of British style / Colin McDowell -- The birth of two great houses, caourt and military dress / Peter Tilley -- By Royal Appontment, outfitters to the Empire / Peter Tilley -- The Twentieth Century, Gieves & Hawkes in modern times / Peter Tilley -- Gentlemen explorers, the Royal Geographical Society / Alasdair McLeod -- Gieves & Hawkes today / Jason Basmajian and Simon Crompton. 610 20 $a Gieves & Hawkes Limited $x History. 650 0 $a Tailoring $z London $z London $x History. 650 0 $a Men's clothing $z London $z London $x History. 700 1 $a Crompton, Simon $c (Menswear journalist), $e author. 700 1 $a Macleod, Alasdair, $d 1963- $e author. 700 1 $a McDowell, Colin, $e author. 700 1 $a Tilley, Peter $c (Men's fashion historian), $e author. 700 1 $a Koda, Harold, $e writer of foreword. 700 1 $a Ehrs, Bruno, $e photographer. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826103025.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=04C3F7A06B5611E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
